Chapter 682

Boom! A loud thunderclap shook the sky. Next came the pouring rain, washing Salem City. The
weather was getting colder with the beginning of autumn.

Sage stayed awake almost all night. She sat by the window with a shawl wrapped around her and
stared at the endless rain pouring down. She wanted to get out and soak in the heavy rain.

On the floor were two bottles of heavy liquor and Irish Whisky with high alcohol content. Sage was not
a good drinker. She easily got drunk and always made a fool of herself. However, for some reason, she
became sober as she drank. She wanted to get drunk and fall asleep. It was too hard to stay awake
with all the sadness around her. This feeling seemed very strange. She was drowning in sorrow with an
inexplicable bitterness and emptiness. Her heavy heart was suddenly hollowed out. She could hear the
whistling wind blowing through her hollow heart, leaving nothing but a feeling of emptiness behind. As
the wind whistled and forth, her heart only ached more. Someone knocked on her door. Luther held a
tray in his hand, popping his head into her room. Behind him was a group of people craning their necks
to look inside. The group frowned the moment Luther pushed open the door. Sage’s room reeked of a
strong smell of liquor. “Go in.” Nigel, who stood behind Luther, gave Luther a push.

Luther walked over to Sage with a tray and said carefully, “Sage, don’t drink so much. It’s
uncomfortable. Here’s some honey water. Drink it to warm your stomach.”

Seth and Nigel followed in. “Yeah, Sage. You can’t just drink. Eat something.”



Kane followed in silently and said nothing. He furrowed his brows hard, looking at his little sister’s pale
face. Sage did not ignore them. She turned her head and looked at them. She moved her lips a little,



“I’m not hungry. I’ll eat when I’m hungry.” The brothers were at a loss. They could not force her, so they
all looked back to their big brother, who was the last to come in.

Tim said, “Leave it here. I’ll watch her eat.”

Tim waved his hand. Luther and the others looked at Sage worriedly and went out.

Everyone was feeling heavy.

Jace’s death turned Sage into a broken robot. Their little sunshine was in despair. An

indescribable depression loomed over them, making the whole house feel cold.

It was like going back three and a half years ago. It was like when mom and dad were killed in a car
accident.

Sage’s eyes remained red and swollen for almost a month. Their death had built an insurmountable
mountain in her heart, making her lively heart freeze. The brothers knew what role Jace played in
Sage’s life.

They knew how the little Sage would talk about Jace like the ray of her life. He was her dream and her
sunshine.

Of course, they were jealous. They teased her a lot, but all they wanted was for her to be happy.

Some people could never have love in their lifetime, so it was certainly a blessing to have someone
they truly love in life.
